Review

"When is a disease not a disease? ... Is it valid to talk of a person being ill without a disease or having a disease without being sick? All these problems—of definition, demarcation and decision—we feel are special to medicine today. It is chastening, therefore, to be reminded that the questions underlying them were being analyzed, with great perspicacity, by the French philosopher and historian of science, Georges Canguilhem, in a work written in 1943 and now gratifyingly back in print in an English translation."
— Roy Porter, London Review of Books

"A brilliant and stimulating book."
— Howard L. Laye, Journal of Interdisciplinary History
